Short bio
S.R. Clark is the author of The Grave He Digs and the founder of Notch & Salt Press, an independent literary imprint in Austin, Texas. His background is in the military and in technology — the ending of one order and the machine that replaces it are long preoccupations of his fiction. He lives in Austin with his wife and two dogs. The Grave He Digs is his first novel; he is at work on others.
Positioning
The Grave He Digs: literary fiction, ~68,000 words — a spaghetti western set in the Greek Mani, c. 1875–1890. In the country of Cormac McCarthy's westerns; sharing air with Jon Fosse; Kazantzakis its nearest kin in place and blood. A structural technical note is available to interested editors.
